VASSAR BROTHERS. HOSPITAL.
A Model Institution at the Seat of Vas.
sar College.

"A Model Institution at the Seat of Vas
sar College.
We present herewith view of new
hospital designed to be sort of model for
this class of buildings. 1t is called the Vassar
Brothers hospital, and is located at Pough-
keepsie, n. ", the seat of the famous Vassar
college for young ladies. 1t is comparatively
small, according to the new idea of construct
ing several detached hospitals rather than
one large one, so that any one may be torn
down if there be good cause to believe it un-
tit for use. Indeed, some hospital authorities
now maintain that such structures should be
entirely of wood and torn down at the end of
few years use; but experience has not yet
proved this view correct.
The Poughkeepsie hospital is of brick, and
i'll complex style of architecture, as the pic
ture shows, with towers, turrets, gabled roofs
and arched doors and windows. The grounds
cover fifteen acres. The building consists of
a central corridor and two wings of exact
ly equal make; each wing and the pro-
longation of the center terminates in towers;
the center projects to the front, and the en-
tire arrangement is calculated to secure the
best possible arrangement of wards, bath
room, operating room and offices. The struc-
ture is designed not only for these purposes,
but to secure thorough ventilation; and this
Nist Is ingeniously secured by system of
pipes through the building, by which all the

A Wallingford dispatch tells Of fight
between two big swapping turtles on
Community lake at Wallingford The
largest was estimated to weigh fifty
pounds. Those who saw it say that the
turtles would get several feet apart and
then come together like the Merrimao
and the Cumberland, though not with
such serious results. When together the
monsters would "catch as catch can, "
and for time it was anybody's fight,
The contestants, which were near the
top of the water, were SO interested in
the affray that they failed to note the ap-
proach of the men in the boat until one
was seized by the tail and nearly capt
ured. Its great strength and weight
proved too much for its would be captor,
who necessarily relinquished his hold TO
save himself from taking header into
the water.--Chicago Times,

There are several methods of hunting
him, the most common being to kill an
elk and then watch the carcass. Shots
may frequently be obtained in this way
early in the morning or late in the eve
ming, and on bright moonlight nights it
is best to watch all night, for the i'm
mense size of the grizzly renders him an
easy target at short range even by moon
light. Another method is to still-hunt
him, the same as is done with deer. This
is perhaps the most sportsmanlike of all,
and if coulee or creek bottom be Sc
iected where there are plenty of berries,
or an open, hilly, rocky country where
the bears are In the habit of hunting for
worms, or any good feeding ground
where bear signs are plentiful, and due
care and caution be exercised, there Is as
good a chance Of success as by any other
method. Many hunters set guns with a
cord running from the trigger to a bait
Of fresh meat, and the 'muzzle of the
gun pointing at the meat. others set
large steel traps or dead-falls. But such
contrivances are never used by true
sportsmen.-G. o. Shields in Harper's

Municipal Reform in Chicago,

The reform feeling in Chicago gains
strength by the fact that the time is at
hand for change in method as well as
personnel. Two bills for the better gov
ernment of Cook county have been
passed, and the coming election for
county commissioners will be under
them. The main idea of the new legisla-
ton is precisely the idea that prevails in
the new charters and amendments to
charters in many of our first cities-the
concentration of responsibility in an ex-
ecutive head. The new county board
will be presided over by a man elected
directly by tho people, and not by the
beard from among its members. This
president holds veto power over all APP
preparations, which cannot be ignored but
by for-ffths vote of the board; he
nominates the superintendent of public
service, who is the business agent of the
county, and the power of suspension of
the latter rests absolutely with the presi-
dent. The minor provisions of the bill
are all in the same spirit of concentration
of responsibility. = Springfield Kepub-

The Once Famous Gun Man.

Norman Wizard, q once famous big gun
manufacturer, may be seen on Broadway
quite any day, and would be picked out
of crowd as a man of note. He is fully
six feet in height, walks with a stride
and has the face Of man always in deep
thought. His hair is tinged with gray
and there are other evidences of advanc-
ing years. Twas he, when in the prime
of his business enterprise, in the days of
the rebellion, that fitted out the Burnside
expedition and that of Gen. Banks to the
Red river. 1t is said that he advanced
quite all the money involved in the gigan-
tic schemes, but that under one excuse or
another the government failed to reim-
burse him. Gen. Garfield befriended him
with all his influence, but the appropria-
tiOns of congress were meager and made
quate to satisfy his claims. Wizard, it
seems, possessed an aggressive nature,
and soon antagonized an all powerful
army and navy clique and so delayed the
recognition of his demands. He invented
many guns, some of which by their merit
forced adoption, and suggested vast
saving to the country by proposing the
rifiing of all the smoothbores. At present
he is identified with an ordnance foundry
in Reading, Pa, and proposes to renew
his demands upon congress at its next
session. Wizard is Canadian by birth,
and although at present not overburdened
with means, was i'll 1861 assessed by the

THE LUXURY OF TABLE LINEN.
Beautiful Designs in Cloth and Napkins
Wrought Upon Exquisite Fabrics.

Wrought Upon Exquisite Fabrics.
Gan the uptown people have the:;-- own
ideas regarding their tale hnen,'' said
well known Gcealer recently to a reporter.
NEARLY all the foreign countries manu-
facture table linen, and there is some
made III this country, but there is a
marked difference between the Scotch,
Irish Dresden, German and French cloths,
which are considered the best grades.
The difference is not only in texture, but
in pattern The French cloth is most
fashionable. 1t differs from the others in
being of much lighter texture and more
elaborate decoration. Almost all the
cloths have large centerpieces.
1.-TWO favorite patterns are the Pom
peiian and the Pois Medina. The center
of the first is filed in with large square
blocks, and the border surrounding it is
of triangles. The second is composed of
medium sized balls and a border of larger
balls, around which are twined myrtle
leaves. Another much used pattern is
the Caprice, which has perfectly plain
center and is surrounded by large flowers.
One of the most expensive patterns is the
Hirondelles. This linen is beautifully
marked. The border is a design of rocks,
out of which are growing cattails, while
in the center are small swallows. The
birds are exquisitely wrought. The
feathers on their wings are so true to
nature as to stand out in fluffy mass.
The cost of set of these, including a
tablecloth and dozen napkins, reaches
800.
In some instances the linen is embroid
cred, and this increases ,the price $14 or
S15. A late craze is for cipher mono
grams, and nearly all the linen sent out
is embroidered in that way. Some of the
larger families still stick to monograms,
while others of the elder stock insist upon
having their coats OF arms embroidered
thereon. The best French tablecloths and
| napkins are nearly all woven at Sierre, in
France. The work is done entirely by
hand. The flax from which the linens
are woven comes mostly from the neigh
borhood of Coatrai, in Flanders, where
a fine variety rs raised. It is 30 long and
slender as to require .supportwhile grow

There is truth in the paradox that peo-
pie should not always be as actively sym
pathetic and helpful as they possibly can;
for there are cases in which the omission
of a service may prove to be the truest
kindness,
''Why don't you help her?" whispered
visitor to a young lady, indicating
grandma, who sat at a distance, labori-
ously trying to thread her needle.
''She doesn't like to have me-" was
the reply. ''It makes her realize that
her sight is going, and that troubles her.
The only help can give lies in putting
threaded needles on her cushion when
she is not looking, and she forgets to
wonder how they came there.
Every one who has lived under the
same roof with old ladies will remember
that they differ amazingly on that very
point; one is grateful for the aid of
young eyes, while another says, with al.
most hurt emphasis, "Oh, no, thank
yon! like to do it myself, Youth &
Companion.

A band of highway robbers was tho
other day brought before the high court
of Poltava, at the head of which stood
noble lady of the name of Rustanovitch.
The band was exceptionally well organ
lied, and it appears to have been ex-
tremely difficult to obtain q "member-
ship, every intending member having to
undergo severe examination by the lady
chief, who apportioned his work to each.
Nine. Rustanovitch was in the widest
sense of the word the head of her people,
who blindly obeyed all her orders. She
distributed the work" had her agents
who sold the results of her "work," ." and
divided the spoil equally between them,
keeping, however, the lions share for
herself. The headquarters of the band
were ON the banks of the Dnieper, in the
department of Poltava, and the police
had for some years tried unsuccessfully
to capture the bandits, the efforts of tho
most slallful detectives being frustrated
by the splendid organization. The final
capture was due to the treachery of a
member. All the mernhes, as well qe
the daring lady chief. ppesented a boa
front 10 the authorities and were all OF
them condemned to terms of imprison-
ment.-Pall Mall Gazette.

Didn't Like Marks Way

Speaking of the death of his uncle,
William Gibson, who was one of Mark
Twain's "Innoeents Abroad" Pitts
burg man says: "Uncle said he did not
like Mark very well; that he was coarse,
and would swear. When my uncle and
his wife were getting a photograph taken
by an ancient pyramid, Mark took it on
himself to hire dirty band of Bedouin
Arabs to walk in on the background Of
the picture. Uncle got angry and drove
Mark and them away. He said he had
often since regretted that he did not leave
them there, as it would have been a very
natural fitting to that kind of a picture. "

to endow the inhabitants of Paris with
drinking fountains that 1t seems incredi-

forced to complain that the water with
which he himself is furnished is utterly

reality. Owing to the drains which run
into the Seine, the water supplied to his

is SO pestilential that not only do his

Pincus vs.. Smiling Albert.

In Judge Lippincott's court yesterday,
tie case of Pincus vs.. Werther, better
known al Smiling Albert, came up. The
plaintiff had loaned the defendant money
which he sought to recover by. attachment
and this was a proceeding to discover
what property he was possessed Of. Mr..
Campbell of Campbell & Duffy appeared
for plaintiff; Mr.. w. O. Speer for defendant
and Mr.. Scallon appeared for O'Rourke,
who claimed ownership of the saloon run
by Smiling Albert. The Smiler was put on
the stand and denied having any attach
able property. Mr.. O'Rourke was put on
the stand and Mr.. Campbell sought to
show by him what property belonged to
the defendant. MIR. Scallon objected that
O'Rourke had not been brought into court
under proper proceedings to require him to
testify under oath and the court sustained
the objection and the order was vacated.
Later in the day Pincus put an attach
ment on the Smiling Albert saloon, for
which he gave the Sheriff an indemnifying
bond. O'Rourke ~repleviad the saloon and
gave Ben Kingsbury and A. J. barnard as
